It i»«aid that when thieves fall out
honest men gel their dues, and the
little ruction between Secretary Alger
and Teddy Gooaemelt may result in
exposing something of the political
thimble under which this w*r i* being

' The most enthusiastic and noisy
patriot is not be who shoulders the
rifle and marches to the field of con>
flict, but be who stays at homo and
robs the government on contracts for
supplies and transportation. It is his
influence which prolongs war, sacri-
Sees lives and drive* the government
into the wildest excesses of expend i«
tore.—Quincy (III.) Herald.
Really, when we come to take a
comprehensive view of the situation,
is appears thst our acquisition of
southern territory will have a fsr
rsaobing effect. No doubt the general
result will be beneficial to the country,
but in the matter of furnishing winter
jeeorts, and in that of-competing with
our fruit and beet growers, it is easy
to see that special interests may suffer
in away that may not prove very sc
ceptible to the person* moat concerned.
American money is somewhat of a
vacillating article io Porto Rico, ac
cording to a dispatch from Gen, Miles.
When he first arrived there it was at a
premium of 125 per cent, but fell in
value as compared with Porto Rican
money, presumably because only the
latter was received io payment of cus
toms dues Gen. Miles has ordered
that it be received in payment for cus
toms due* at a premium of 10 per cent
until the definite comparative value
can be arrived at.
The Springfield (Mass.) Republican
says: “The lottery of war appear* con
spicuoualy in the cases of Capt. Sigsbee
and Lieut. Commander Wainwright,
who had the battleship Maine when
■be blew up. Sigabee was given what
was considered much the better com
mand, the big liner St. Paul, while
Wainwright took the steam yacht
Caraair, renamed the Gloucester. The
Gloucester has won mor* glory than
the St. Paul becau"* of belter oppor
tunity which no one could foresee
Wainwright is one of the conspicuous
heroes of the war."
The sale of the Buena Ventura, the
first prise steamship captured by the
United States navy, in New York the
other day for $12,200 has led to the
opinion that Spanish bottoms are a
drug on the market, or else somebody
i* making a good thing out of the
government and the captors of the
vessels. The Buena Ventura w.s
valued at SIOO,OOO. A similar experi
ence was had in tbe case of the Guido
valued at $400,000 which brought at
auction only $130,000. According to
this the little British steamship Adul.
of 372 tons valued at SBO,OOO Ly tbe
appraisers, would probably bring, if
taken to New York to be sold, some
thing like SIO,OOO to $12,000. Her
captors and the officers of tbe court
expect better things of her. In view
of these facta it would perhaps be of
advantage to them to have her put oo
the block right here al home.—Savan

Gunpowder is composed of potasium
